The finished lower level offers a versatile space, perfect for entertaining or multi-generational living and features a mini-bar, full bath, bedroom/office space, built-in speakers, and walk-out access to a patio entertainment area-- wired for a hot tub, a gas hookup for a grill, and ready for sound. The attached 2-car garage offers effortless convenience into the home. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a new upper deck (2025), screened porch, and multiple gathering spaces overlooking the wooded acreage and large yards. Thoughtfully enhanced for both comfort and peace of mind, the home also includes new insulated siding and windows (2022), an automatic backup generator, water softener systems, and a well- maintained HVAC system with centralized controls. In addition to the main residence, the property features an impressive detached garage/workshop thoughtfully designed for both utility and versatility.

A separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest house with an attached one-car garage and private patio adds exceptional flexibility and value to the property.
